[before the Teikoku replacement Champion gets announced] last minute panic? last minute panic!

[finalizes]

Can someone teach me how to do the magic here?

I signed up to run as a Champion for Teikoku, and if they choose me people will probably notice if I do something else.

And even if I don't get it, it's the last week and there's no wedding scheduled, so, like Casper says, something is probably going to happen. And I want to be able do to something about it in front of people if it does. [Not because he likes being in front of people, but because he would like to not be helpless-or-discovery.]


[ooc: I'm specifically looking for singing-based performance magic, so if someone wants to teach him singing I'm down with that, too! Open to infiltrators and investigators mingle companion!]

Oh! Um... I might be able to help with that! I know how it works! Well, my overlay does, and she's pretty good at it when she's singing!

How much do you know so far?

[finalizes]

People use art to create magic. [So not very much, which in big part is due to him not understanding art.

At least he knows what singing is. He doesn't know if he's any good at it, but it helps if he has no problems with understanding the art form?]

[photonicfighter]

Ah! That's... definitely the basics! We can start from there!

Do you like to sing? Or draw? Or... make things? Tell stories? Anything like that?

[finalizes]

I don't do art.

[And there we have the root problem.]

[photonicfighter]

You... don't?

[Dakki is not going to let this news discourage her, however.]

Then we'll just have to teach you how to do it!

[A very important undertaking, given that he has just volunteered himself for a role requiring some amount of art.]

[finalizes]

Where do we start?

[He's been trying to learn things by watching others do art magic, but he just doesn't have a starting point - it's like being chucked into a kitchen for the first time in your life and be told 'and now bake a cake' (he would fail equally much at that).]

[photonicfighter]

Well... let's start with one kind of art. We'll focus hard on one thing, and bring that up to speed!

Actually, we should do this in person. [There is a pause.] Somewhere... out of the way. Because I'm in Lone Star and maybe I shouldn't be seen helping out a different school?

[finalizes]

Maybe.

[...]

There is an unused room in the north tower that's fairly hidden. We can use that. [He sends her a visual impression of the - indeed hard to find - way there.]

[photonicfighter]

We'll try! There's no harm in trying.

...I think I can find my way there. I'll be there in a bit!

((OOC: shall I take it to the mingle top level?))

[finalizes]

I'll wait there.

[ooc: Yes, please!]
